I am an Associate Professor in the Education, Policy and Society department at the IOE, UCL's Faculty of Education and Society. My role involves research, teaching and institutional citizenship - at least that's what's on the tin! My research has increased understanding of two interdisciplinary subjects: identity and leadership in the workplace, and the experience of Black women and girls in education. Critical conversations to transform perspectives on gender and race are central to my teaching. Interaction and engagement informs everything I do, including my recent TV appearance on Channel 4's Judi Love: Black, Female and Invisible , as well as my social media How long have you been at UCL and what was your previous role?.
